Elegant Butterfly Anniversary Card

So apparently my card creating ambition hasn't quite come back, but I did find time a few mornings ago to make a card for an online swap and an anniversary card for my brother and sister-in-law.

With this time of year being busy for us since it is harvest, I've been away from the house a lot so when I am home in the mornings, I try to get the house cleaned up and laundry done. But I do sometimes manage to find time for some creativity if it strikes.

Check out Dakota Stamper - Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator on facebook to see my card I made for the online swap.

But here is the card I made for my brother and sister-in-law for their anniversary.

Paper: Whisper White Card Stock, Floral District DSP

Stamp Set: Loving Thoughts (wood mount and clear mount)

Ink: Basic Gray Stampin' Pad, Basic Gray Stampin' Write Markers

Accessories: Stampin' Dimensionals, Elegant Butterfly Punch

I love the simplicity of this card!

I hope you feel inspired.
